lyrics
And we had a really great fun time
And we swam every day
We played in the sand on the beaches
And we also played a game of putt-putt golf
I won by one hole
And then we went to the um,
Ahh, what is it called?
And we each got an ice cream
From this ice cream parlour in there
And it’s a funny thing, cos,
In the ahh, waves, in the sea
You couldn’t really taste the salt,
There was hardly any salt in there
And it was really fun…
When we were Young, I think it’s really great
When we were Young, and it was really fun
When we were Young, I think it’s really great
When we were Young
The next day afterwards
We, um,
I dived into the sand, you know, a couple of times
And so my face was all sandy, you know,
And I had swallowed sand, and it was all sandy
But it was really, really great fun
And so then we went back and had a swim to clean ourselves off
It was really nice……
When we were Young, I think it’s really great
When we were Young, and it was really fun
When we were Young, I think it’s really great
When we were Young
When we were Young
